Hi All,
trying to upgrade a SQL 2008 R2 SP2 to SQL 2014.
This is a standalone SQL server installation with one default instance not part of a cluster or anything special.
- The wizard completes with failures for the following components:
- Management Tools - Complete
- Management Tools - Basic
- Reporting services - Native
- Database Engine Services
- Full-Text and semantic Extractions for search
- SQL Client Connectivity SDK
The only components that seem to be upgraded are
- SQL Browser
- SQL writer
- Setup Support Files
The components that were failed all have the same error message:
An error occurred for a dependency of the feature causing the setup process for the feature to fail.
If I look at the detail log file I see a lot of references to MSI files he cannot find.
for example:
(12) 2016-05-20 16:01:39 Slp: Sco: File 'F:\1033_ENU_LP\redist\VisualStudioShell\VSIntSetup\x86\vs_setup.msi' does not exist
If I look at the SQL 2014 media the path indeed does not exist. Could it be that the upgrade of SQL to 2014 needs the original SQL 2008 R2 (SP2) source?
